I have an Adaptec 1205 SATA controller which is either bad or isn't compatible w/ nVidia nForce motherboards (at least the A7N8X-VM or A7N266-VM). When using ATOF the machine hard-locks if a read error occurs. Adaptec doesn't seem to have a BIOS upgrade.

I know there are some Promise cards MHDD doesn't support. I'm wondering if there are any Promise cards it DOES support.

Here is a list of Promise cards currently available to me:
